Default Aristo wheels and tires

Could a few folks help me with specs for this thought......
I have a 98 GS4 with 17s. I am looking at a set of Aristo 16s staggered. The fronts are 7.5 and the rears are 8.5. I believe my GS4 has 8 inch. Will the offset work with the Aristo 16s on my 2nd gen GS? And what would the tire sizes be for the staggered 16 setup? Seems like prices could be expensive for tires, especially the rears being 16 x 8.5 (is this right?)

Thanks,
G

I was hoping to have a more definitive answer from maybe someone who has owned a TT Aristo or who knows the car's specs well.
What is the offset of the TT Aristo wheels?
Tire sizes front and rear?

Thanks again~

Up from the dead, the Aristo 16x7.5/8.5 have a +50 offset all around.

I used to run on 16X8 +50 with 225/50/16 and 16X9 +50 with 235/50/16. You could use wider tires.

I still have the wheels and tires collecting dust.

No problem with clearance even if you lower the car: wheels will tuck in the wheel well about +1". MY CAR IS 1GEN.

Good luck.

You can find a picture of the wheels on the car in wheels classified. Search for staggered supra wheels.

Kino, I sent you a PM.
